Nothing to see here, folks.

[SIIIIIGH. Geez, this guy sounds just like MAX.]

Yeah yeah... I get that a lot.

Well, I got it through the mail. At first I thought it was a letterbomb.

So naturally, I got curious and opened it.

It was sent to me from a friend. My old editor Max, from MEGASURPRISE magazine. He wanted me to run a story about the info within. ...I have no idea how HE got his hands on it, though.

[Shrugs] As I said, I didn't know beforehand that anyone would have to sacrifice anything. Wouldn't have mattered to me anyway, though.

That'll work.

Solid..us...? Wow. The disk never mentioned that...

[Blinks] Oh. Uh, sorry 'bout that.

Well, apparently Big Boss was such hot shit that the government decided to clone him. One of his clones, Liquid Snake, took over an Alaskan base and tried to build his own army of genetically-enhanced super soldiers.

Solid Snake, his twin, was sent there to stop him and rescue a few hostages... or so he THOUGHT...

In reality, he was injected with a virus called FOXDIE, and sent there to spread it to a few selected individuals. It causes a heart attack to occur within people with a specific genetic code. This was the pentagon's way of keeping the whole thing hush-hush.

Snake probably should have died that day. But for some reason he didn't, and accomplished his mission.

The Nastasha woman I'm looking for was a member of his support team during that time. She knows A LOT more than I do. Romanenko is also the one who wrote the book that explained all this to me- called "In the darkness of shadow moses". It was part of what was contained in that disk.

She was already a pretty secretive person before that, and hard to get a hold of. But after that incident, she dropped off the face of the Earth COMPLETELY. I thought she got capped. And maybe she DID die.

But she's also here in this building.
